Why does the first picture show the clerk? It is a bit misleading. You have to read the article the realize that is in the two guys standing to either side of him that are the suspects.

They couldn't have gotten too much cash if most items are only $1.00.

Brad - It was the only photo that showed both suspects' faces, so it was the first one pictured. Our hope is that people take the time to read our stories, though. :)

I was thinking the same thing Frank ... The Crossings is way too big for an apartment complex! It reminds me of the projects you would find in a big city. Don't get me wrong, I think that offering affordable housing is a good thing, but the statistics don't lie, and when it's that large you start getting a subculture mindset.

You might want to blur the faces of innocent bystanders then.

Whats sad is the company has failed to even get the two employees any type of help after that event. The third party co that handles that told the employees you get no help because "they feel" it was an inside job... Mr. Mckay please do a follow up on the staff and lack of security measures to protect them or help them.
